The Web Museum of Commercial Aviation

http://www.airchive.com/

This strangely informative site is all about the history of the
commercial airplane. View the history of commercial flight
through the Timetables and Map section, which is touted as "The
History of over 30 Airlines through their Schedules and Maps."
You can browse through the airlines
alphabetically.

Then you have the Plane-spotting section. "Visit and Find Out
About the Airliners and Airports From Around the World." Again
you browse through by an alphabetical listing. I chose Amsterdam.
They give you a brief history on the airport, what you can expect
to find there in the airport itself (the airport in Amsterdam has
a small aerial museum inside of it) and what kind of planes are
there.

There is a Memorabilia section and a Vintage and Scrapped Planes
section. The Memorabilia section contains just that, and you can
browse it
alphabetically. The Vintage and Scrapped Planes section was
really interesting. You can find out where airliner graveyards
are, see historic
classic planes and find air museums.
